Chapter 111 The butt didn't move
"It's hard to drink?" Jiang Lan's voice suddenly rose.
She muttered, "That's impossible! I washed the dishes several times and added a lot of sugar, so how could it be unpalatable?"
Puzzled, Jiang Lan took the bowl and took a sip.
The next moment, she stuck out her tongue, shook her head twice, and then arched her eyebrows.
“It’s delicious.”
“So sweet.”
She looked at Xie Jiaojiao and asked, "What's so hard to drink about it?"
"It's too sweet, so cloying."
"You're being picky." Jiang Lan tried to correct Xie Jiaojiao's thoughts with a look that said, "You don't know what's good." "Jiaojiao, sweet water tastes good. White water, tasteless water, doesn't taste good."
Xie Jiaojiao frowned and said, "No, it doesn't taste good. It hurts my teeth."
"I just like to drink plain water without sugar."
Jiang Lan: “…”
If someone else said this, Jiang Lan would roll her eyes and retort "idiot".
But it was Xie Jiaojiao's turn.
Jiang Lan's heart is crooked.
Jiaojiao must have her reasons for doing this.
Not understanding, but choosing to respect.
"Jiaojiao, bear with it for a day and drink some to moisten your throat. Tomorrow, I'll bring you some unsweetened water."
Xie Jiaojiao shook her head firmly: "Lanlan, you drink it, I can't drink even a little bit."
"Really not drinking?"
"No."
"Aren't you thirsty?"
"Not thirsty."
Unable to be persuaded, Jiang Lan, adhering to the fine tradition of diligence and thriftiness, squinted her eyes, took small sips, and looked very satisfied.
After drinking the water, Jiang Lan asked with concern: "Jiaojiao sister, are you used to working?"
When talking about this, Xie Jiaojiao's eyes lit up.
She pulled Jiang Lan's arm and pointed to the freshly turned land behind her, her face full of excitement.
"Lanlan, look, I did all this."
"Jiaojiao sister, you are awesome. You have finished the whole row."
"A row?" Xie Jiaojiao's eyelashes trembled, and her eyes were confused.
"But..." Jiang Lan took Xie Jiaojiao's hand, pointed to the other end of the field, and said seriously: "Jiaojiao, after you finish one row, don't be stupid and come back to do it all over again. You can do it from the other end of the field and come back. It's the same and it saves trouble."
"I didn't look back! I've been doing it here all along."
"What?"
Jiang Lan was shocked.
She looked at the length of the few steps she had walked, then looked at Xie Jiaojiao, and anxiously did splits and gestured.
"This, this is what you did this morning?"
Xie Jiaojiao naturally attributed Jiang Lan's surprised tone to the fact that Jiang Lan was shocked by her ability.
She looked a little proud: "How is it? Is it a lot? Am I very good?"
Jiang Lan wanted to slap her thigh and curse, but she was speechless when she met Xie Jiaojiao's beautiful eyes waiting for praise.
"I told you not to underestimate me, I'm very powerful."
"sharp."
Even a five-year-old kid can't be this powerful.
After hoeing for a long time, I found that my butt had not moved.
"Lanlan, I've had some water. You still need to keep an eye on the work, so go ahead and get busy. Don't worry, I'm fine."
Something wrong?
Jiang Lan felt that this was a serious matter.
What should she do if Jiaojiao asks her to register her centimeters after work?
At Jiaojiao's current rate, she won't be able to dig out even one centimeter.
When the time comes, what will you do, little sister Jiaojiao, if you see that you have worked hard all day and only gained one centimeter, and then you start crying?
Xie Jiaojiao had no idea of Jiang Lan's worries. After talking to her, Xie Jiaojiao, who had rested well, picked up the hoe and started working again.
I was so excited just now that I didn't feel any pain.
After resting for a while, he picked up the hoe and went back to work with his blistered hands.
In an instant, a piercing pain came over her. Xie Jiaojiao cried out in pain, and the hoe in her hand slipped and hit her feet directly.
"Jiaojiao sister!"
Jiang Lan's eyes were bloodshot.
It rushed over like a small cannonball, and when it was a few centimeters away from Xie Jiaojiao's feet, it grabbed the falling hoe tightly and threw it into the ground next to it.
Jiang Lan felt from top to bottom with both hands, and only after confirming that Xie Jiaojiao's hands and feet were intact did she breathe a sigh of relief.
"Jiaojiao, are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?"
Xie Jiaojiao, who was completely unaware of the danger she had just experienced, pouted and said aggrievedly.
"Something's happening!"
"Injured!"
"Where? Where?"
Jiang Lan's tone suddenly became anxious.
The tip of the hoe is a sharp weapon. If you hit it, it will cause a lot of blood to flow.
The delicate girl has a small body and only has a few pounds of flesh on her body. If she loses a few pounds of blood, how could that be tolerated?
Xie Jiaojiao stretched out her five fingers in front of Jiang Lan: "Here, there are blisters, it hurts."
Jiang Lan was stunned.
Suddenly, he hugged Xie Jiaojiao, patted her on the back, and then let go, saying with fear: "You scared me to death."
"What kind of injury is this? It's okay. Just pick it open, get a callus, and it will heal."
Xie Jiaojiao was unhappy to hear Jiang Lan's casual tone.
"How can it not be considered an injury? It hurts."
Jiang Lan was about to retort, "Where does it hurt? There's not even any blood," but she met Xie Jiaojiao's red eyes, misty eyes, and pitiful look.
My heart softened all of a sudden.
She was born and raised in the countryside, digging in the dirt, and her appearance was rough, so she was not a big deal.
But Jiaojiao is different from her. She has delicate skin and tender flesh, so it hurts and needs to be treated seriously.
After brainwashing herself, Jiang Lan quickly changed her tone: "It counts, it must count."
"Jiaojiao, bear with it for now. I'll take you to Uncle Lin's house and apply some medicine on your wounds. The pain will go away in no time."
Jiang Lan hurriedly grabbed Xie Jiaojiao's arm and was about to leave.
Xie Jiaojiao tugged at her sleeve and accidentally touched the wound. She screamed "Ah" and her face wrinkled.
The screams were heard by Xie Jiaojiao, but the pain was felt in Jiang Lan's heart.
She stopped and comforted him patiently.
"Sister Jiaojiao, bear with it for a while, we'll be at Uncle Lin's house soon."
"That's not it."
Xie Jiaojiao, feeling pain, called out to Jiang Lan before she turned around.
"Lanlan, you still have to keep an eye on the work. I know where Uncle Lin's house is. I can go there by myself."
"Go see the doctor first, and come back to do the rounds later."
Xie Jiaojiao refused: "My hand is injured, not my foot. I can go by myself."
"I'm worried."
“Work is important!”
“You are important!”
They looked into each other's eyes, neither giving in.
Finally, Jiang Lan bowed down first, and gave instructions with some worry.
"Be careful on your own and don't touch your hands again."
Afraid that Xie Jiaojiao wouldn't take it seriously, Jiang Lan imitated Xie Jiaojiao's expression when her hand was hurt: "It hurts, it hurts so much." This caused Xie Jiaojiao to glare at Jiang Lan.
"You, you are not allowed to imitate me."
"No, no, remember this and be careful, or I'll stay with you..."
Before he could utter the word "go", Xie Jiaojiao shot him a fierce look that said, "If you dare to go, I won't forgive you."
Jiang Lan honestly changed her words: "Wait for me for a while, I'll come to see you after I'm done."
"good."
Jiang Lan, transformed into an old mother, was feeling uneasy as she watched Xie Jiaojiao's figure gradually disappear. She quickly quickened her pace and went to supervise the work.
Five or six minutes later, Xie Jiaojiao arrived at Uncle Lin's house.
She knocked politely.
Jiang Zhu, who was learning how to process medicinal herbs in the yard, heard the sound and hurried over to open the door.
The gate opened.
"younger brother?"
"Sister-in-law?"
